Addresses with a balance of 1 to 100 BTC increased their holdings by 14,207 bitcoins

Addresses with a balance of 1 to 100 BTC have increased their total holdings by 14,207 bitcoins over the past two weeks, despite the cryptocurrency's price falling below $75,000. This was reported on November 9, 2026, by the analytical platform Santiment, which tracks operations and balances in blockchains.
Addresses holding 1 to 10 BTC saw an increase of 10,076 BTC. Addresses with a balance of 10 to 100 BTC added another 4,131 BTC during the same period.
These figures reflect changes in the balances of certain groups of addresses, rather than the exact number of market purchases. One investor may manage multiple wallets, so such data cannot definitively determine the number of individual holders.
Santiment views accumulation amid a price decline as a potentially positive signal. According to analysts, such dynamics may indicate a willingness among some market participants to increase BTC holdings despite prevailing negative sentiment.
The initial analysis also considers a conditional scenario of price recovery to 78,000–80,000 if Bitcoin holds above $75,000 and accumulation continues. However, this scenario depends on further market dynamics and does not guarantee the formation of a local minimum.
The number of non-zero Bitcoin addresses decreased by almost 109,000
At the same time, Santiment recorded a decrease in the number of addresses with a non-zero BTC balance. On October 16, their number reached 59.99 million, approaching the 60 million mark. By November 10, the figure had decreased by approximately 108,700 addresses, to 59.88 million. Such a change does not necessarily mean that a comparable number of investors are leaving the market. Owners may transfer funds between their own wallets, consolidate balances on multiple addresses, or completely empty individual wallets.
According to Santiment, such a reduction in the number of non-zero addresses has sometimes been observed during periods of negative sentiment before subsequent recovery in the cryptocurrency market. However, by itself, it does not allow for determining the future direction of Bitcoin's price.
Strategy and Strive continue to increase Bitcoin reserves
BTC accumulation also continues among public companies using cryptocurrency as a reserve asset. American company Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, acquired 1,036 BTC for $81.9 million from November 2 to 8. The average purchase price was $79,012 per coin.
After the transaction, Strategy's total reserves reached 850,364 BTC. The company's expenditure on their acquisition amounted to approximately $64.16 billion at an average cost of $75,456 per bitcoin.
Another American company, Strive, acquired 29 BTC from October 31 to November 6 for approximately $2.2 million. The average price was $75,721, and the total reserve increased to 43,153 BTC. Thus, Santiment data and corporate reports indicate continued Bitcoin accumulation by individual market participants. Meanwhile, the reduction in the number of non-zero addresses and the price decline show that the dynamics remain uneven.
The presented figures do not allow for determining whether BTC accumulation will lead to a sustainable recovery in its value.
